Umm..in the first picture, i'm pretty sure the magazine is inserted backward o_O Pindad should tweak the design to make it more foolproof

M2 browning machine gun mounted on soviet dushka tripod..now that's east meets west for sure :-) fun fact: few years ago Pindad conducted modification and rebarreling procedure on TNI's old M2 machine guns formerly mounted on B-25 and B-26 bombers, P-51 mustang, OV-10 bronco several hundreds...

Maybe to replace singaporean made R-12D flyer Kopassus known to operating 5 units of this vehicle since the 90's

i agree banning organization like FPI, but i disagree to your "isolating" idea, the fact says otherwise, extremism in Indonesia is relatively low indonesia is a model of Muslim Democracy our approach to terrorism is generally well appreciated by many country besides counter terrorism action we...

i rest my case. you are going backward in this discussion. you can read my previous posts, why i think SS-2 V4 is not optimal for DMR role why i suggest SS-3 to fill that role instead also why SS-2 V4 is still valuable for TNI but not as DMR, rather an Infantry Automatic Rifle (like USMC's IAR M27)

the USMC uses M4, that is a carbine with shorter barrel..meanwhile TNI uses full size rifle currently, USMC using Mk318 standard, that is 3 generation later than our bullet it is made based on middle-east warfare experience..their bullet is optimized not for speed, but for increased stopping...

nah..IMHO it proves nothing the article does not state in under what circumstances those thing happened what is the range? how many bullets fired? did the ceramic plates is also attached to the vest? MU5TJ is produce using NATO SS109 standard it is 62 grains, relatively fast flying bullet with...

^^ i stand by my argument there is a reason why anywhere in the world, no one uses 5.56mm rifle as Designated Marksmen Rifle even though it will simplify logistical problems tremendously it simply don't work we always bragged about how well SS-2V4 perform in shooting competition like AASAM/AARM...

true that, currently we are shifting our deployment pattern to mechanized infantry, and TNI is pretty fast in adopting it since releasing in 2008, anoa has been produced more than 300 units.. more IFV and APC is in order we are now have the ability to simultaneously transporting 1 fully equipped...

Well, the team composition always conform to the equipment they got Problem is, in TNI the equipment varies greatly between one batallion with another In one batallion they are better equipped with latest SS-2 + optical sight, in another batallion they even still uses M-16A1 So,equalization in...

Nope, V4 has the same barrel length as V1, both are 460mm..so the effective range is identical The only differences between the two is heavier barrel in V4, which means better grouping potential and better sustainment to prolong fire Barrel length SS2-V1 460 mm SS2-V2 403 mm SS2-V4 460 mm...

i think you got that wrong the usage of heavy barrel in V4 doesn't give an extra range..it means to give a tighter grouping and better sustainment to high rate of fire the same thing applied to the usage match grade ammo. It doesn't give an extra range either, it just ensure a uniform flight...

Rheinmetall latest 120mm HEAT ammo DM 11 programmable round for Leopard 2 RI The A4+ version does not have capability to fire that round

typical rifle group in TNI AD: 1 team leader : SS-2 V2 carbine assault rifle with optical sight 1 vice team leader: SS-2 v1 assault rifle with optical sight 1 machine gunner: minimi assault rifle 1 ammo bearer: SS-2 V1 assault rifle with optical sight + additional ammo for minimi 1 grenadier...

i think SS-2 V4 still have place in today's warfare but not as DMR rifle US marine adopting IAR M27 (HK 416 in 5.56 +heavier and longer barrel) in its organization since 2010 but of course it is not meant to fill as DMR role, but rather to be a lighter version of SAW (squad automatic weapon ~...

no, the problem is not the length of the rifle pindad has been offering DMR concept for several years now but TNI doesn't seem to interested in SS-2 V4 simply because it is using 5.56mm caliber even though it is advertised as "the rifle that win AASAM" over and over again.. in real world, 5.56...

sorry, i know nothing about this maybe you should ask @madokafc She seems to know a lot about procurement thingy in our MOD

do you mean tweaking the existing rifle? Simple answer: NO a lot of compromise have to be made you want longer range? -lengthen the barrel, but it will make the rifle unwieldy -increase the propellant pressure, and you make the barrel wear faster -with current caliber, the bullet will drop...

another sniper rifle made by pindad: SPR-1 7.62mm it is based on winchester model 70 action the design is quite obsolete by today standard laminated wood body is prone to swell up when exposed to high humidty typical to tropical country the action does not feature controlled-feed system, it is...

earlier version later version just minor upgrade from the earlier version of SPR-3. Mostly just furniture differences: - Free Floating front handguard, does not contact to barrel. - Round profile muzzle break. Now there's no need to remove the muzzle break to install suppressor. The Supressor...
